While the breakfast buffets, chlorine pools and tourist tan lines of all-inclusive resorts hugging the equator might be the ideal couple’s getaway for some—there are those who are drawn to vacations that are a little less conventional. Because while it is true that there is a comfort to be found in flower print shirts and ocean-view lawn-chairs, there is also a feeling of transcendence that is found in pushing past your comfort zone with your partner by your side. That is why many adrenaline-seeking adventurers are heading to the heart of Peru’s Sacred Valley, where they will ascend a jagged cliff-face, to wine, dine and sleep inside a translucent pod that hangs 400 feet above the ancient Incan Empire.

The glass pods of Natura Vive Skylodge are perched on a 400 ft. cliff and have a 300-degree view of the vast ancient Incan Empire.

Adventurers climb a gargantuan mountain that cradles Peru’s Sacred Valley on a course that’s been specifically designed so that even beginner climbers can safely make the intense vertical sections.

Once adventurers arrive they will find a gourmet dinner, bottle of red wine and a comfortable queen sized bed waiting for them where they can celebrate their victory under the isolation of the night sky.

The translucent pods are 24 x 8 feet and are equipped with a separate independent bathroom with a running sink and ecological toilet. Just imagine the view from that throne for a minute.

The morning after their stay, adventurers glide on a zip-line back to the Sacred Valley.

The whole vacation experience—including the ascent and descent— costs just £200.

While the thought of sleeping suspended in the sky might induce instant vertigo in some—the suites are completely safe. They’re made of aerospace-grade aluminum and weather resistant polycarbonate.

The Natura Vive Skylodge Adventure Suite is the ultimate location for romance—even if your only romantic interest is in Mother Nature.
